小巷, 胡同
a narrow passage between or behind buildings
An alley is a narrow, often hidden path or road, typically located between buildings or behind properties. Alleys are usually not designed for heavy traffic and are often used for accessing the back of houses, stores, or other buildings. They may be found in both urban and suburban areas, providing a shortcut or additional access point to a location. Alleys are often less developed than main streets, and in some cases, they are used for deliveries or parking, offering a more private route for those who need it.
